Froebel Society

Froebel Ireland Society (FIS)

Fis is the Irish word for vision so this a most apt title for this new initiative to be launched in April 2002, to celebrate Friedrich Froebel's birthday.

Membership in the Froebel Ireland Society is open to anyone in the international community who has an interest in Froebel Education and child-centred education. Membership benefits include the newsletter and subscription to the Froebel Ireland Journal of Child-Centred Education.

The society intends to sponsor an annual conference, open to the international community, and smaller theme conferences from time to time. We especially welcome membership from people outside Ireland. We aim to create a community of dedicated professional with an interest in the education and welfare of children.
